Bagley Polygon Power Divider using Simplified Composite Right/Left Handed Transmission Line

In this paper, a Bagley Polygon power divider using Simplified-Composite Right/Left Handed (S-CRLH) transmission line (TL) is presented. Bagley Polygon power divider provides possibility of selecting the desired phase in the third port in one or two bands by using metamaterial transmission lines or conventional lines. The proposed design supports two frequency bands at 2.4GHz and 5.2GHz with a compact size of 55mm x 55mm. The results of the CRLH and S-CRLH structures are also compared. It is noted that S-CRLH as compared to CRLH exhibits small dimensions of the structure, including optimal bandwidth and lowest return losses.
